Iron & Wine – Such Great Heights lyrics
I am thinking it's a sign that the freckles
In our eyes are mirror images and when
We kiss they're perfectly aligned
And I have to speculate that God himself
Did make us into corresponding shapes like
Puzzle pieces from the clay
And true, it may seem like a stretch, but
Its thoughts like this that catch my troubled
Head when you're away when I am missing you to death
When you are out there on the road for
Several weeks of shows and when you scan
The radio, I hope this song will guide you home

They will see us waving from such great
Heights, "come down now," they'll say
But everything looks perfect from far away,
"come down now," but we'll stay...

I tried my best to leave this song on your
Machine but the persistent beat it sounded
Thin upon listening and
That frankly will not fly. You will hear
The shrillest highs and lowest lows with
The windows down when this is guiding you home

They will see us waving from such great
Heights, "come down now," they'll say
But everything looks perfect from far away,
"come down now," but we'll stay...

    Love that feels like it was meant to be has the power to lift us up from humanity to see the larger picture. Others, whether due to jealousy or past experience, will see the enormity of their love and tell them it will soon fade, that something so good cannot last, but they make the decision to put those words aside and remain in the wonderful heights of their love without hesitation. Through the new perspective that love gives, they are able to be away from each other while still staying close because they know that they stand on the solid platform of eachother's love always.
